WSODOWNLOADS.IN PART 2 Making money with TOP Instagram Niches Firstly, let's declare what makes a niche profitable so you can succeed. Instagram is a massive beast. With millions of accounts it's not easy to stand out. Before you pick a niche, you need to ask yourself how do you want to monetize your Instagram account. Common monetization methods include: 1. Selling shoutouts or uploads of advertisements for other brands. 2. Driving traffic to a product and earning commission. Also known as affiliate marketing. 3. Selling your own product perhaps, through either drop-shipping or a digital product such as an online course or eBook. It's good to know your end goal and work backwards to how you'll achieve it. IF you don't have a product: Selling shoutouts and driving traffic to an affiliate product via a link in your bio can be a great method of earning passive income. The more accounts you grow, the more potential for higher figure income. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Important factors to keep in mind when growing a profitable Instagram niche account. Quickly, before we dive into the most profitable Instagram niches... You want to ask these questions before growing an account: 1. What is the age of the demographic you will be targeting 2. What is the gender of the demographic you will be targeting 3. Where will your demographic be located? 4. What language will your demographic speak? Having these factors in mind, will make it much easier for you to then sell/ advertise/promote products to your followers. As you'll know exactly who your audience is and what they want. For example, you don't want to advertise an English male related fitness product to Spanish speaking females. Profitable Instagram Niche #1: Fitness Fitness is massive on Instagram. It's by far the easiest to get into, yet one of the hardest to sell in due to the saturation of the market. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Here are examples of different and specific Instagram fitness niches you could use with Instagram Ads to drive traffic to affiliate products, such as exercise machines, supplements or training programs: CrossFit Yoga Snowboarding Skateboarding Gym/Weightlifting (popular) Cycling Swimming Baseball Basketball Football Soccer Tennis / Table Tennis Volleyball Golf Rugby Cricket WSODOWNLOADS.IN You would want to pick one sub-fitness-niche and grow an account only focused on this. This makes it very easy for you to know who your followers are and what to sell to them. Let's take a look at some examples of Fitness niche accounts: Profitable via: Shoutouts/ads, Clothing (teespring, shopify, printful), Selling online courses, Selling consumables such as green tea.

And this is why the Luxury/Lifestyle niche is fantastic. Therefore, luxury accounts such as: Super Cars Super boats/Yachts Watches or Jewelry Clothing (Street, Runway, Nightlife, Fashion) Travel (Hotels, Locations) Homes / Buildings / Pools Work great. NOW, whilst most users who follow these accounts can't afford the material items shown, they do look towards living a luxurious lifestyle. So when an opportunity is presented (advert) that let's them experience this luxurious lifestyle for a cheaper price. They will jump at it. A perfect example here would be advertising for a watch, which looks like a high end luxury brand, but only costs $97. Here are examples of luxury accounts to pull from: WSODOWNLOADS.IN Profitable via: Car product shoutouts, Car parts (led lights, rims, gadgets), apparel, phone cases, tickets to car meetups WSODOWNLOADS.IN Profitable via: Selling ads/shoutouts , Clothing, shoes, phone cases, clothing protectors (shoe spray, clothing racks), decor items such as shoe racks or carpets WSODOWNLOADS.IN Profitable via: Selling ads/shoutouts, luxury clothing/items at a cheap price, lead generation for companies/other products WSODOWNLOADS.IN Profitable Instagram Niche #3: Animals 99% of the population loves cute fluffy animals.

Here's example of accounts you could grow: Cute dogs doing cute/funny things Cute cats doing cute/funny things Cute bunny rabbits doing cute/funny things Just any pet looking cute doing funny things! Cute animals make people feel positive emotions. Pet owners want their pet to look good and feel good because that makes the owner feel good and happy. People buy happiness. Therefore, you can easily sell products to pet owners which makes their pets life better.

But it's also a much harder niche to be profitable from. This is where most people go wrong. You need to create an Instagram account which is lazer-focused to a specific travel audience. We're talking about: Campers Backpackers Business travelers Van life Rock climbers Camping with dogs We are not talking about luxury travel, as most people will never have the finances to afford it. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Yet trust an Instagram account to drop $5,000+ on a trip. Instead, targeting these smaller sub-travel-niches, you can easily sell products that will make their travel experience better. Such as anti-theft backpacks for anyone backpacking through a country.

This niche is typically male dominated on Instagram, but that doesn't mean there are not females on Instagram looking at this niche. Examples of Business accounts include: Stock information/tips Blogging tips Saving money tips eCommerce tips How to start a business Public speaking/networking tips Marketing tips As you may have noticed, these accounts all give tips. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Within this niche, and with any niche, if you can provide free value to your followers they will feel much more inclined to repay you by purchasing a product. Offering a ton of free value also greatly increases your trust and reputation = more sales. It is a lot more work in the long run, but the payoff can be incredible.If you sell or plan to sell your own digital product such as an online course, training program, consultation or eBook this is a great niche to jump into.

Driving traffic to a product and earning commission. Also known as affiliate marketing. 3. Selling your own product perhaps, through either drop-shipping or a digital product such as an online course or eBook. Selling Shoutouts An Instagram shoutout, also colloquially called Insta shoutout or IG shoutout, is essentially when one user promotes another user on their own Instagram account. An Instagram shoutout usually takes the form of User A creating a post or story that contains a photo or @ mention of User B. If it’s a business shoutout, User A’s post might contain a photo or video of a specific product or service that User B sells. In many cases, shoutouts fall under the umbrella of influencer marketing – a massive trend that has more than doubled in the past couple of years and doesn’t show signs of stopping anytime soon. WSODOWNLOADS.IN An Instagram shoutout can happen in a few ways: Paid shoutouts: These shoutouts are a classic influencer marketing tactic. This is when you sell shoutouts to a user to promote his brand, typically with cash or via an exchange for a free product. S4S (shoutout for shoutout): S4S is a simple trade – they agree to give you a shoutout on their page if you give them a shoutout on yours. Voluntary shoutout: The Holy Grail of shoutouts. This is when someone is just so darn happy with your product or customer service that they give your brand a shoutout without you even having to ask or pay. You will do paid shoutouts obviously. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Websites where you will sell shoutouts: Shoutcart.com This is a reputable Instagram shout out site that will connect you with the buyers.

WSODOWNLOADS.IN Affiliate Marketing If you plan to use affiliate marketing as the monetization method, please check bonus resources here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/urrkbjkqskl6fc3/AABTLeMWT8VGxFR2AWZci ZhBa?dl=0 I prepared 17 premium websites for you to use them as the landing pages while promoting affiliate products. You may change websites per your needs. The easiest way to find a product (offer) you will promote is by using OfferVault. What is OfferVault? Offer Vault consists of almost 53,000 affiliate and CPA offers to choose from. It is actually a search engine that scouts 60+ networks to provide you with that many affiliates offers. Factors include: Payout, Type, Category, Network, Last updated date These categories will be listed for each search term that you enter, with all the relevant information on the offers made by each merchant. This way you not only find all the available and best possible offers but also can easily compare them with all the other that exist from the pool of networks. WSODOWNLOADS.IN OfferVault earns by collecting flat monthly fees from the network for listing their offers on OfferVault. The networks do this because OfferVault has a large audience of affiliates searching the site everyday and listed networks receive a constant stream of new affiliates who are interested in promoting their offers. Once you get associated with OfferVault and join the networks with offer that you want to promote, you can start sending traffic to the offers. As you start getting conversions (selling the products or generating leads) from one of their merchants, a certain amount of commission will be paid to you from the network.

WSODOWNLOADS.IN PART 5 Tips to get more out of Instagram Ads Let’s look at how you can get more out of your Instagram ad campaigns with these seven tips: 1. Use Instagram’s new zoom feature Instagram recently launched an update to the service that gives you the ability to do a little close-up marketing with your Instagram ads. Instagram’s new zoom feature allows users to pinch the screen to zoom in on both photos and videos. The addition was implemented due to the high number of user requests Instagram was receiving to have the feature added to its platform. It didn’t take long for brands to start experimenting with the zoom feature, either. Some clever companies even tried out slow-motion effects and new filters, in addition to advertising through the use of storytelling on their Instagram feeds. Each new feature offers opportunities for brands to flex their creativity and find new ways to make their ads shine through the sea of uninspiring, overly salesy ads pushed out by their competitors. WSODOWNLOADS.IN The zoom feature can help you amplify engagement on your Instagram ads, especially if you include a hidden gem that users can discover in your photos. Tugging at their curiosity with the offer of somewhat interactive content could be enough to make them pause whenever they come across one of your photos in their feed. WSODOWNLOADS.IN 2. Promote your best content The typical approach companies take to generating new content for ads usually involves them carefully scripting ad copy and developing calls-toaction that will have the greatest impact with their audience. If you want to have more impact with your ads, don’t follow this approach when advertising on Instagram. You already have a wealth of content that you know your fans appreciate. Look back through your organic posts to find images that sparked the most engagement from your audience. Repurpose those posts as ads to get a huge lift in response from a wider audience. That’s what Paper Boat Drinks did. Check out this original post on their Instagram page: WSODOWNLOADS.IN After seeing decent engagement on the first post, the company decided to reuse the photo and its caption to create an Instagram ad. At the end of a 6-week campaign, the post saw over 26,000 likes, a stream of comments, and a tremendous lift in their brand’s visibility. Not every campaign you create is going to be a smashing success, given all the variables that go into creating and targeting ads. However, you can improve the likelihood of success by starting with something you know your audience already likes. 3. Improve your targeting The fact that Instagram draws on the extensive user data available within Facebook’s ad platform means you can really zero in on your audience within Instagram. But you have to know how to leverage different aspects of the platform to really make it work for you and your brand. Aside from the standard targeting mechanisms, there are some other features that can help you narrow your focus. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Custom and Lookalike Audiences: The lookalike audience feature allows you to create a custom audience for your ad that replicates your existing followers. This can help you bring in new people who have similar interests, demographics, behaviors, and employment backgrounds to your current audience. Remarketing: Facebook has a pixel you can place on your website and track visitor behavior. While its primary purpose was intended for monitoring and tracking conversions from social, it can also be used for ad targeting. WSODOWNLOADS.IN You can then create a custom Instagram ad audience consisting only of people who have visited your website. Other modifiers can be added as well, such as only targeting the people who visited your website and either took a specific action or abandoned their carts. Since the average cart abandonment rate is over 68%, remarketing through Instagram can be a great way to win back those lost customers. Using the advanced targeting features will get your ad in front of the most relevant audience segments, which should improve your clickthrough rates. When you specifically target people who are more likely to convert, and your click-through rates subsequently increase, you’ll bring down your cost per click rate as well. Spend extra time experimenting with Instagram’s audience targeting features, as they can dramatically impact your campaign’s performance. 4. Don’t make your ads look like ads If you want to boost engagement and score more click-throughs with your Instagram ads, then don’t make your ads look like ads. Your audience is far more likely to respond to posts that look like natural content as opposed to blatant product promotion. Incorporating actual people into your images and videos is critical; images that contain faces get 38% more likes than other types of content. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Make sure your fans don’t feel like you’re constantly trying to sell them something. While some won’t mind the marketing attempts, you should still aim to create the most organic experience possible. For this reason, plan your ads carefully. When you’re getting ready to launch a new Instagram ad, start creating organic, high-value posts with the same theme as your ad. After your ad goes live, make a few similar organic posts. Creating a theme for your promotion will lead to a smoother transition that interweaves similar ads of both the paid and organic variety. 5. Use the call-to-action button When you create an Instagram ad, you can include a call-to-action button near the image caption (bottom right of the image.) This CTA button is in the same spot for Facebook ads. The button offers you several choices in the messaging of your call-to-action. If you find one that is relevant to your campaign, use it. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Clover, a dating app, launched an ad campaign on Instagram to promote their mobile app. The ad targeted 18-35 year-old singles. The goal of the campaign was to reach a wider audience and increase the number of mobile downloads of the app. WSODOWNLOADS.IN Using Instagram’s ad platform, Clover developed a series of ads featuring single men and women (see the above advice on using faces), along with the “Install Now” button on the ad. By the end of the campaign, Clover saw a 30% increase in new subscriptions and reduced their new user acquisition costs by 64%. “Hands down, Instagram has been the most successful platform for acquiring high quality app users,” said Kris Armstrong, Director of Marketing for Clover. “We’re familiar with Facebook’s ad management platform, which has really helped us optimize our campaigns quickly since Instagram uses the same interface.” 6. Promote with video When most people think of Instagram, especially those who don’t use it often, they probably imagine an endless stream of static images. They forget that Instagram is also a great channel for promoting videos. Videos instantly capture the attention of users because they stand out from the content around them. People love watching videos, even if they are short. When Instagram introduced videos, there were more than 5 million videos shared within the first 24 hours. If you put product videos in front of your customers, they are nearly twice as likely to make a purchase, especially if you couple it with a call-to-action button. If you’re having a hard time coming up with material for a video, turn to your audience. User-generated content is a powerful tool for building trust with your community. Curate their videos or get video of your customers with your products on location or at events. Share their enthusiasm for your brand and promote those videos through ads. WSODOWNLOADS.IN 7. Tell a story with image carousels You aren’t stuck with a single image for your Instagram advertisements. The platform is based on a carousel, which means you can showcase more images for your fans to browse. If you’re trying to sell a product or service, weave a story into the content to make it more engaging. Intrigue your audience with a storyboard of striking images that not only highlights the best parts of your brand but also connects with your fans in a meaningful way. Don’t just post product images; use photos that represent the experience of your product or service and how it makes people feel. WSODOWNLOADS.IN
